An ice dragon, diving onto the arena in Volcano Dome
Ice dragons,[1] also described as "dragon-shaped ice projectiles",[2] are enemies in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its port. They are airborne entities produced by Lord Fredrik's horn. One ice dragon first appears in the game's prologue, producing a blizzard on Donkey Kong Island that freezes it in the process, followed by the Snowmads settling on the island. Lord Fredrik employs ice dragons again to attack the Kongs during the battle in Volcano Dome, using them in two ways. In one of Lord Fredrik's attacks, ice dragons launch from his horn in the background plane and crash down onto the arena to create slippery patches on the ground. When Lord Fredrik is on the same platform as the Kongs, ice dragons can also be sent horizontally towards them and can be avoided either by crouching if their wings are positioned upward, or by jumping over them if their wings are downward.
